hi lulu!
sorry to hear you are frustrated. you only have a 16 lbs. to lose. i know that to you, it's alot, but to your body, it isn't. the less weight you have to lose, the slower it goes.
a good idea is to figure out your lean body mass and body fat percentage. check out these sights.

also, you need fat and carbs if you want this to work. you need to eat enough calories (10-12 times your weight), and drink 8 glasses of water a day.
